I was taught the imperial system whilst a schoolboy in the UK, many years ago. So I prefer imperial rather than metric. But, as metric is becoming the norm, I have become familiar with both systems.
Personally I think the metric system is better because it is easier in my opinion. When you think about it though, pretty much every teacher in the US has taught their students through the metric system and to change it would be complicated and the parents would even be confused too.
Yes, many educators do believe that chemistry should be taught is secondary schools now.
Yes. Most of the rest of the world except for the United States and one other country uses the metric system, measuring with meters, kilometers, e.t.c. We use feet, inches, miles, e.t.c. this can cause various complications when measuring. Even though we have different system of measuring things, the metric system is commonly used in the USA regardless. In physics, most students are taught calculations with metric system measurements.
There are always costs involved in converting to a new system. other than that any problems are in the mind. The only reason to stay with the old archaic system aside from the expence of change is unwilingness to make the change.
Both imperial and metric is currently used in the UK. The metric system is exclusively taught in UK schools. So, eventually, as children become adults, the metric system will become the norm. Resistance to using the metric system is usually from adults who were taught the imperial system when they were schoolchildren.
The customary units are ones we use everyday. metric units usually have the word meter on it. my teacher taught me meter metric no meter no metric.
Children in Canadian schools are typically taught in English or French, depending on the province. In some provinces, there are also opportunities for students to learn in indigenous languages. Additionally, other languages may be offered as elective courses depending on the school and region.

The premise of this question is false. Canada's history is taught in schools in ALL Provinces and Territories.

no ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Schools should not force students to be religious.
Subjects taught in residential schools often included basic academic subjects like reading, writing, and arithmetic; vocational training in trades like farming or domestic work; religious education; and cultural assimilation practices aimed at erasing Indigenous languages and traditions. These schools were designed to strip Indigenous children of their identity and culture in order to assimilate them into Euro-Canadian society.
English and French are the two official languages of Canada, so these are the most commonly taught languages in Canadian schools. Some schools may also offer other languages as part of their curriculum, depending on the region and school board policies.
